Abstract: This paper uses the principles and methods of goal attainment degree of training, adopts the scientific research methods such as expert consultation method and analytic hierarchy process firstly defines the construction principle of the evaluation system of the goal attainment degree of training in traditional Chinese medicine major, and then builds the evaluation system of the goal attainment degree of training in traditional Chinese medicine major from the evaluation indicators, evaluation weight, evaluation methods and evaluation criteria, providing a new idea and path for the effective evaluation on the training quality of traditional Chinese medicine personnel.

1. Introduction It has always been the difficulty of teaching management in colleges and universities to make

an effective evaluation on the quality of personnel training and to make an effective judgement on the problems in the process of personnel training according to the evaluation results. There are many studies on the quality of personnel training in colleges and universities in China and abroad. And the common characteristic is that they are closely combined with evaluation practice. Domestic scholars' research on the evaluation methods on the quality of personnel training mainly focuses on the evaluation of mathematical statistics methods and models, as well as using expert evaluation methods and management models to evaluate according to the connotation and standards of personnel training quality in colleges and universities[1]. However, there are few studies on the methods used to evaluate the quality of personnel training using the theory of goal attainment degree of training. The evaluation on the quality of personnel training using the theory of goal attainment degree absorbs the advantages of the evaluation methods such as the mathematical statistics method and mathematical statistics model, expert evaluation method and management model. For example, the impartiality and objectivity of mathematical statistics and model in evaluating the quality of personnel training; The scientific and authenticity of the y expert evaluation method and management model in evaluating the quality of personnel training. Meanwhile, the disadvantages of using mathematical statistics and models to be subject to the acquisition of the availability of reliable data and comprehensive data, as well as the influence of unfavorable factors such as the expert subjectivity in expert evaluation method and management model[2].

The goal attainment degree of training refers to the degree to which the training objectives set by the training department are realized, and it is implemented by the personnel training objectives, professional systems and curriculum systems formulated by colleges and universities[3]. It can be seen that the evaluation on the goal attainment degree of training is to evaluate the quality of personnel training. The evaluation on the goal attainment degree of training is to trace the attainment degree of the graduation requirements of the personnel training and finally evaluates the goal attainment degree of personnel training based on the assessment results of the whole process and all links of personnel training. This paper uses the principles and methods of the goal

attainment degree, adopts the expert consultation method, the analytic hierarchy process to build the evaluation system of goal attainment degree of training for undergraduate traditional Chinese medicine major (referred to as "TCM") from the aspects of evaluation indicators, evaluation weights, evaluation methods and evaluation criteria to strengthen the management of TCM personnel training process and improve the quality of TCM personnel training.

2. Principles of establishing evaluation system for goal attainment degree of training of traditional Chinese medicine major

In addition to the three principles of comprehensiveness, objectivity and scientificity and maneuverability[4], the principles of quantitative evaluation and orientation should be followed in the construction of the evaluation system.

2.1. The quantitative evaluation principle This principle requires that all evaluation indicators, supporting courses and related observation

points should be measurable. Based on the assessment results of courses, second classes and related teaching links of graduates majoring in traditional Chinese medicine, the evaluation results of the final training goal attainment degree quantitatively reflect the quality of the training of traditional Chinese medicine personnel.

2.2. The orientation principle This principle requires that the evaluation system constructed can reflect the problems in the

personnel training of TCM in the evaluation practice, guide the direction of improving the quality of TCM personnel training and provide an effective basis for the teaching management department to strengthen education and teaching reform.

3. The construction of evaluation system for the goal attainment degree of training in traditional Chinese medicine major

The construction elements of the scientific and reasonable evaluation system include evaluation indicators, evaluation weights, evaluation methods and evaluation criteria. The evaluation indicators should be objective and scientific, the evaluation weights should be of reliability and validity and be reliable and credible, the evaluation methods should be operable, and the evaluation criteria should be in line with the reality.

3.1. Construction of evaluation indicators According to the training objectives for the current training program of traditional Chinese

medicine major in a university of traditional Chinese medicine in Jiangxi Province, this study designed an expert consultation form of "the Goal Attainment Degree of Training in TCM Major" that covers students' all around development of moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetics and labour education in accordance with the accreditation standards of TCM major and the requirements of the society for TCM personnel. After two rounds of consultation and the summarizing and analyzing of expert opinions, the training objectives for traditional Chinese medicine major are decomposed into seven first-level evaluation indicators such as being of good ideological and moral and professional qualities, mastering the basic theoretical knowledge and skills of the major, and having good ideas, etc. and 21 second-level evaluation indicators such as good ideological and moral character, social and professional ethics and the concept of practicing medicine according to law, etc. The specific content of the evaluation indicators is shown in Table 1 below. Due to the limitations of length of the article, this article does not describe the supporting courses and the main observation points under the respective secondary evaluation indicators.

3.2. Analysis on the weights of evaluation indicators In order to make the weight coefficient of the evaluation indicators objective and scientific, this

601

study uses the 9-scale analytic hierarchy process[5] to analyze the first-level evaluation indicators and the second-level evaluation indicators of the goal attainment degree of training in TCM major. After consultation with 20 experts, the weights of each level of indicators are calculated and the combined weights are calculated and assigned value through the construction of the hierarchical structure model and judgment matrix of the evaluation indicators of the goal attainment degree of training in traditional Chinese medicine major. Finally, data normalization and consistency indicators (CI) test (both CI and CR values are less than 0.10) are carried out. The weight analysis results of the evaluation indicators of the goal attainment degree of training in TCM major are shown in Table 1 below.

3.3. Determination of evaluation methods 3.3.1. Data sources

This study takes the assessment results of supporting courses and related observation points such as the second class, the teaching internship, the graduation internship, the internship from a master to his disciples, the graduation examination and the clinical skills assessment for all the students majoring in traditional Chinese medicine from 2017 to 2019 in a university of traditional Chinese medicine in Jiangxi Province as data sources for evaluation.

3.3.2. Calculation method In order to reflect the overall training quality of all the students majoring in traditional Chinese

medicine, the average of the assessment results of the supporting courses and related observation points are taken as the basic data for the evaluation. Combining the weighting coefficients of each supporting courses and related observation points, the evaluation scores of each secondary indicator can be calculated. By analogy, the evaluation scores of each first-level evaluation indicators can be obtained. Finally, the score of the first-level evaluation indicators should be added to obtain the evaluation result of the goal attainment degree of training in traditional Chinese medicine major.

3.4. The evaluation criteria is clear In order to better judge the training quality of traditional Chinese medical personnel, analyze the

problems in the cultivation process and propose countermeasures and suggestions for further improving teaching and strengthening personnel training, this study defines the evaluation criteria for the goal attainment degree of training in TCM major into four ranks after consulting experts: The score above 85 refers to "excellent". The score greater than or equal to 70 and less than 85 is "good"; The score greater than or equal to 60 and less than 70 is "qualified"; The score less than 60 is "failed ".

4. Conclusion The evaluation system of the goal attainment degree of training in TCM major is scientifically

constructed through the construction of evaluation indicators, the analysis of evaluation weights and the clarification of evaluation method and evaluation criteria. On the basis of ensuring reliable and credible data, the evaluation on the quality of TCM personnel training can be done. In order to make the evaluation more convenient, timely and accurate, the computer programming technology can be further utilized to design a network evaluation system based on the evaluation system to strengthen the integration of humanities, management disciplines and science and technology and to
